One person who won't be coming forward recounting his time on the casting couch is this A- list dual threat actor who has a big franchise in his past and is currently on a hit pay cable show. He came literally out of nowhere to land that franchise. It made his career. He got it by having sex with the A list director of the movie. He says it continued on and off for a couple of years. Mostly off. Eventually he told off the director and no more movies with the director.

Tricia got it, naturally. I remember working at the resort that the cast was staying at when they filmed X2 in Alberta during the time, Marsden got a girl fired for bringing her to his room, I recall her saying it wasn’t worth it afterwards.

Check him out in “The D Train” with Jack Black— a really sleeper film(I liked alot) and have said here before— Marsdens character seems uncannily like him (bi sexual kinda sleazy player ttype)... check it out

“Literally out of nowhere” - Marsden is from Oklahoma - is that the US equivalent of being from Nunavut like here in Canada? Nunavut is beyond remote and untouched wildernness. Some people but mostly land and such.

The first name I thought of was Sam Worthington, (Avatar/James Cameron) who did have a cable series in 2017. Hadn't heard of him before Avatar, but he has several sequels coming up, so the franchise isn't in his past. Also I'm not sure Discovery is pay cable.

I'm going to guess Tom Hiddleston and Thor director Kenneth Branagh. The hit pay cable show being The Night Manager? It's on AMC/BBC so it's basic cable, so I'm not sure. His other show is on Netflix, so that wouldn't count.

Maybe go way out there with Crispin Glover who was George McFly in Back to the Future, but refused to return to the role in part 2. He's currently on American Gods on Starz (pay cable).Making the director Robert Zemeckis, a good buddy of Speilberg

Sam Worthington for sure. Literally out of nowhere, with an enormous push to make him a big star, for someone no one had ever heard of who wasn't very good at acting. Discovery is a pay channel, not network.

This is definitely Marsden. Young Marsden was totally Singer's type. Cyclops is a pivotal character in the Comics, so I was pretty surprised that they killed off his character pretty unceremoniously, but it makes sense if he told Singer off. He has a tiny cameo in Days of Future Past, probably to fulfill his contract. Ally McBeal, The Notebook and 27 Dresses were after the first X-men.

My issue with the James Marsden guess, besides him being known before X-Men, He has worked on X-Men with Bryan Singer in 2000 and on XMen DOFP in 2014. He definitely did not stop working with that director. And he said said “I’ve always been very proud of my role and it’s out of my hands,” he said. “It’s nice to see Bryan [Singer] go back in and turn the boat a little bit. I’m happy for those that made it back. I’d like to. I get excited watching the trailers because I’m excited for the continuance of the X-Men world. I’m a fan of X-Men and I know it’ll be a kick-ass movie.”

I first thought of Richard Armitage. Prior to his lead in The Hobbit trilogy, he was mostly known for television series' in the UK. After The Hobbit he's starred in movies, and is now on AMC's "Berlin Station". He'll also be the lead male in "Ocean's 8".

But I don't want to be right about this, because it would mean Peter Jackson had a casting couch, and he seems like such a decent guy! So I hope I'm wrong!

Sorry, off-topic. A guy gets up and dances and sings, and all the ladies swoon. Hugh Jackman has freakishly beady little eyes. He's not good-looking at all. But he sings and dances and smiles, so he's irresistible. Apparently that's how it works.

I really hope this isn’t James Marsden also who hails from the great state of Oklahoma and grew up in OKC. Would most consider it “literally out of nowhere?” @crazycatlady ����‍♀️ I could see a young person possibly agreeing to some shady stuff to get a break in Hollywood. Whoever this is, I have to give him props for standing up and saying “No, no more!”

even tho james marsden fits for xmen/westworld, he had a movie career in the nineties, even the early nineties I started seeing him pop up in disney original movies and stuff. heck w/mention of Disturbing Behavior (1999?) I dont see him for this, but he pings as bisexual.

Orlando Bloom, Like Sam Worthington, both seemed to appear out of nowhere (at least for me), but both have also worked with the same director for over a decade on the same series. Sam is in every Avatatar (Including future projects) and Orlando worked on The Hobbit movies 2013/2014, the most recent film Peter Jackson has released.Neither fit the never worked with the director again line.

Quit trying to force someone not a lead on a hit pay cable show into this. Bloom and Worthington are not on pay cable hits. This is Mardsen and enty is just discounting his previous experience. He was not a household name until X men movies -hence out of nowhere.

Well considering this is Jerry Bruckheimer’s m.o. (allegedly) I’m going to eyeball him. The only person that kind of fits is Orlando Bloom. Who although he was Legolas, he looked so different as a blonde with pointy ears, and hadn’t really been heard that much of, was then cast as secpnd-leas in the Pirates franchise. He doesn’t have a TV series out yet though.

I am going with the group with Marsden except not sure why no one seems to follow the tween genre this is why Marsden was not out of nowhere. Disturbing Behavior tween hit. Gossip was another tween decent movie which also had Kate Hudson, Norman Reedus, Lena Headey, Josh Jackson. 90’s early 2000s was Dawson Creek, Party of Five, Saved By the Bell and campy tween show territory and it’s the genre I follow and most young folk before cellphones social media all we had was tv. Dudes may not have known who James was but their girlfriends would have he was sexy. So he was out of nowhere only for those who dont follow the tween genre.
